Every character is presented wholesomely (the only utterance of "fuck" springs from the mouth of the antagonistic Critters).

What makes " Critters " more than a ripoff are its humor and its sense of style.
The director, Stephen Herek , likes to break the mood occasionally with a one-liner out of left field, and he gives the critters some of the funniest lines.
